I like hot stuff (lol, within reason), but the taste of horseradish just never appealed to me.

Pickled/sliced jalapenos are my drug ... err ... "hot stuff" of choice, but I also like tabasco and chipotle.

My wife is FORBIDDEN from bringing jalapenos into the house!!!! LOL

If it's like green tea, will it taste like eating bermuda grass?

Nope. It’s actually has a tart or cranberry-like flavor. If you drink it cold, squeeze some lemon into it and add some sweetener and enjoy. Hibiscus is also high in antioxidants.

Horseradish is only good quality if it causes sweat pouring from your forehead and snot running out your nose.

Ham, beans, onion, salt, pepper and horseradish.

There are lots of different classes of bp meds. People usually have to try a few different ones until they find one that suits them best. I recommend going back to your doctor and getting a different prescription. Just an fyi, canned foods like beans have super-high amounts of sodium, which consequently can increase your blood pressure. Go to Walmart and get a blood pressure monitor and take it every day. If your numbers stay high you’re at risk for a stroke.

They have low sodium versions of canned beans and other canned foods. If you read food labels don’t by any prepared or packaged foods that have more than 1mg of sodium per calorie.

Mac has a blood pressure machine.

However, I have a bone to pick with you, Mac. After joking about this thread with the wife yesterday, guess what we had for supper?

The more insidious worries, without even notable high blood pressure, but just moderate and completely asymptomatic high blood pressure are congestive heart failure and kidney failure.
